Hello,
In the Node-RED configuration, is it possible to change the value shown in:
« Node-RED interface URL: http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:1881 (Not accessible from Gladys Plus) »?
Because on my setup, the port is 1880.
Thank you in advance
Logically you don’t need to change the port of Node-RED.
On my system it’s also on port 1880 and everything is fine.
Note that I installed Node-RED myself before it was possible to install it via Gladys; the difference may come from that.
Why would you need to set it to 1881?
I don’t need to change the port.
The problem is that in the interface it says 1881 and when I click on it I end up on a page that asks for my username and password, and that page is not the right one, so I’m denied access every time I click the link.
The link should be redirected to my Node-RED port, which is 1880.
I’m having trouble understanding… can you take a screenshot of your interface using this link?
I wonder: didn’t you install your Node-RED on your side and also install the one provided in Gladys? That would mean that, in the end, you have two Node-RED containers running.
I think you’re right about the two containers.
Here is the list:
It looks like there’s a link between the two.
So the whole point is: what do you need? Because I admit I don’t understand it.
If you already had Node-RED installed, you can remove the one we see in your screenshot.
Or if for some reason you want to use that one, you can remove the old one — remember to back up your flows if you have any!
In any case, except for very specific cases (whose usefulness I have no idea about), having 2 instances of Node-RED is pointless 
In fact I installed Node-RED in 2021, well before it was integrated into Gladys.
When the integration was created, I wanted to use it, naively thinking that it would link to the existing instance.
I want to be able to access the interface by clicking the link in Gladys, quite simply.
Ok, so the only way is to migrate all your Flows from your old instance to your new one.
You can easily export your config and import it into the other.
Once done (and after verifying everything) you can delete the old container
That’s what I thought.
I’ll do that tomorrow.
Thanks @guim31

After stopping the Node-RED containers I copied the entire directory from my first Node-RED to Gladys’s.
This was to also have the palettes because otherwise, when doing an export/import there are only the flows.
All the flows and palettes, except one, were recovered.
However, I had connection issues with my RF-Link and the MQTT broker.
I spent some time trying to resolve the issues but couldn’t.
Since my first Node-RED config works very well, I disabled Gladys’s and deleted the copied files.
Oh well, I won’t use the link that allows access to the instance created by Gladys.
This integration is only useful for new Node-RED users.
Thanks for your help @guim31
